Ad Break ends (5:01)

During the break, Edge tried to slam the ladder into Matt’s head and drive it into the ringpost, but Matt ducked, and Edge just hit the ringpost instead. Then, Matt managed to get a superplex. Matt gets a series of punches, and a low blow, to maintain his momentum. He drives Edge into the Unforgiving Steel Lader, which has been set up in the corner. Matt climbs the ladder and goes up top. JR references TLC. Edge quickly gets on the ladder, too, and they slug it out. But Matt’s got the high ground, and he drives Edge’s head into one of the steps. Edge falls off. Matt climbs to the top — YODELLING LEGDROP OFF THE LADDER! One… two… NO! Matt goes out to grab a chair, but Edge grabs a Singapore cane that’s already in the ring and hits Matt just in time. Then Edge blasts Matt’s head with the cane yet again. [“Hardy!”] Edge sets up Matt’s head on top of the chair, then goes out and grabs yet another chair. He asks Lita for permission and goes back into the ring. Edge lines up the one-man Conchairto… but Matt manages to sweep Edge’s leg and bail back to the corner. [“Hardy!”] Matt walks into a flapjack into the ladder. The ladder is still intact; JR praises the Home Depot. Edge goes back out to grab the can lid that Matt had used a little earlier. Edge gets four rapid-fire lid shots, and Jack Doan considers stopping the match. Matt starts to get up, so Edge hits him again. Edge restarts the slutfest, and Matt can’t defend himself, so Doan continues to check on Matt. Edge gets a running boot to the head. He stares into the crowd. Matt begs the referee not to stop the match. [“Let’s go Hardy!”] Edge takes Matt out and sticks his head between the steps and the ringpost, but Matt just gets his head out in time before impact. Matt blocks an Edgecution onto the exposed ring steps. He gets a right, drawing a big pop — DDT ONTO THE STEPS! It’s double-KO time, and now Matt starts to slam Edge’s head into the steps. Doan checks on Edge, too. Matt lines up a chair shot on Edge. Lita comes from behind with a little love top with the briefcase to Matt’s back. Matt chases Lita around, like a dumbass, allowing Edge to come from behind with a running flying forearm. And now they continue to slug it out on the outside. [“Let’s go Hardy!”] Matt grabs the ladder and starts to think about strategy. He hits Edge with a running ladder shot and sets him up on the ladder. Up he goes — moonsault attempt… Edge gets out of the way! Double-KO once more. They head back out, and Edge gets the trash can itself. Edge hits Matt hard in the back. And then the head. Matt punches air, and he looks lost. Edge gets a hard right. Coach smartly points out that Edge is going after the head, and only the head. First time I think that’s been mentioned all match. Edge leads Matt up the ramp as Lita watches, but Matt desperately slams Edge’s head into the stage setup. Lita stares at Matt, who starts to powerbomb her off the stage — and TSN shows it! — but Edge makes the save. He tries a bodyslam off the stage, reversed — Twist of Fate attempt — NO! They slug it out close to the edge of the stage. Matt ducks a big right hand — SIDE EFFECT OFF THE STAGE THROUGH A TABLE! Near the electrical equipment, which gets some little pyros for effect! Both men are dead. Jack Doan calls for the power in the area to be shut off, and EMTs follow to give both men the stretcher job. Call it…
